Helpful Hints

Do not overfill the bag. Always leave at least 7.6 cm/3in between bag contents and the top of the bag.
Clean the opening end of the bag inside and outside. Flatten the bag opening.
When vacuum packaging a large item, to prevent wrinkles in the seal, gently stretch the bag flat before placing it into the vacuum chamber.
Make sure the bag is dry. It will be difficult to make a tight seal if the bag is wet.
For best results, perishables still need to be frozen or refrigerated after the vacuum sealing process.
When you are vacuum sealing items with sharp edges (such as dry spaghetti, silverware, etc.), protect the bag from punctures by wrapping the item in soft cushioning material, such as a paper towel.
Pre-freeze fruits and vegetables before vacuum sealing for the best results.
Allow the appliance to cool for 1 minute between uses to avoid activating overheating protection.
If you are not sure whether your bag was sealed properly, simply reseal the bag.

Microwave: Make sure the bag is punctured before heating by microwave to allow the release of steam.

Troubleshooting

1. Nothing happens when the power cord is plugged into the appliance.

Make sure the power cord is not damaged.
Make sure the power cord is correctly plugged into the electrical outlet and appliance.

2. The appliance is plugged in but cannot vacuum.

Ensure the lid is properly closed.
Ensure the opening end of the bag is correctly placed into the vacuum chamber.
If the indicator lights flash, the appliance may become overheated. Allow it to cool for several minutes before using it again.
Check if the bag is punctured.
Check if the foam sealing gasket is deformed or damaged.

3. The bag was vacuumed, but the air has re-entered.

Check if there is a hole or puncture on the bag. It may be punctured by sharp items. Use a new bag if necessary.
Check the sealing seam. Any wrinkle along the sealing seam may cause air re-entering. If yes, simply cut the sealed edge and re-seal.
If there is moisture or liquid at the opening end, cut the bag and wipe it away. Then choose MOIST FOOD setting and reseal.
If the food has been stored for a long time and the bag is full of gases, it may spoil and it is suggested to discard the food.

Note:

To prevent the appliance from overheating, allow it to cool for 60 seconds between uses. Keep the lid open to accelerate heat dissipation.
If the bag melts, the sealing strip may be overheated. Allow the appliance to cool for 60 seconds before using it again.
For the best preservation, do not reuse the bags after storing raw meats, fish or greasy foods. Do not reuse the bags after simmering or microwaving.
